Monitoring section in the Port Monitoring chapter of the
Dell Networking OS Configuration Guide.
Defaults
By default, 10 ACL logs are generated if you do not specify the threshold explicitly.
The default frequency at which ACL logs are generated is five minutes. By default,
flow-based monitoring is not enabled.

Command History
Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.4(0.0) Added the support for flow-based monitoring on the MXL
10/40GbE Switch IO Module platform.
9.3(0.0) Added the support for logging of ACLs on the MXL
10/40GbE Switch IO Module platform.
8.2.1.0 Allows ACL control of fragmented packets for IP (Layer 3)
ACLs.
8.1.1.0 Introduced on the E-Series ExaScale.
7.4.1.0 Added the monitor option.
6.5.10 Expanded to include the optional QoS order priority for the
ACL entry.
Usage Information
The order option is relevant in the context of the Policy QoS feature only. For
more information, refer to the “Quality of Service” chapter of the Dell Networking
OS Configuration Guide.
NOTE: When ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously,
byte counters may display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with
logging instead.
When you use the log option, the CP processor logs details about the packets that
match. Depending on how many packets match the log entry and at what rate, the
CP may become busy as it has to log these packets’ details.
The monitor option is relevant in the context of flow-based monitoring only. For
more information, refer to
Port Monitoring.
You cannot include IP, TCP, or UDP filters in an ACL configured with ARP filters.
When the configured maximum threshold is exceeded, generation of logs is
stopped. When the interval at which ACL logs are configured to be recorded
expires, the subsequent, fresh interval timer is started and the packet count for that
268
